América managed to hand Monterrey their second defeat of the season and keep all three points despite their head coach’s absecne seeing as he served his suspension picked up last week against León. The visitors may have scored first, but América were able to make a comeback and seal a win at home as they attempt to finish off the last part of the season with momentum.
America had their first opportunity of the game in the 4th minute when Alejandro Zendejas went up the right side into the box, where he got the ball off to Henry Martin, who was immediately engulfed by blue jerseys, and Jonathan ‘Cabecita’ Rodríguez’s shot was blocked for the first corner of the match.
